This degree has a strong multidisciplinary focus and emphasises the development of innovative technologies, strategies and solutions to implement sport and biomedical practices. A sport and biomedical engineer is trained to develop and implement high technology electronic solutions for many applications to:

• develop and maintain systems to assist in the training of athletes of all types;
• help clinicians diagnose and monitor patients;
• assist with systems for patient and sports rehabilitation;
• design high-tech sporting equipment.

Its focus on work integrated learning includes off-campus industry placement in the final year, ensuring graduates are fully prepared for a challenging career in industry, and research and development enterprises. The final year project in industry will offer experience in various areas including the specialist fields.

The program allow significant flexibility and students can often choose courses outside their main study area to develop a broad understanding across a number of areas. Students interested in research can often undertake research projects under the supervision of academic staff, even while undertaking their undergraduate program.
